Louise Mandell Legal Research Collection

A new legal research collection dedicated to Louise Mandell has been developed in honour of her contributions to Indigenous peoples and the law. Below are links to resources that are relevant to Louise Mandell's work with the UBCIC and other First Nations. Physical copies of books, journal articles, reports, legal analyses, papers, court decisions and much more may be found in the Louise Mandell Legal Research Collection at the UBCIC Resource Centre which is accessible through the library catalogue. An exhibit that was created for the launch of the collection and is also currently installed in the foyer of the Resource Centre. This collection is intended to expand and evolve as new elements are added including more video interviews as part of the oral testimony project. Fundraising for this collection is ongoing and we gratefully accept charitable online donations.
